Torque Webinar Part 2: The Importance of Torque Control and Wrench Types and Use (What's the Best Torque Wrench for your Application?)
Join us November 12th at 11 am for the 60-minute webinar, "Torque Webinar Part 2: The Importance of Torque Control and Wrench Types and Use". Henry Zumbrun will deliver the second part of our torque webinar series. Previously we covered torque standards and measurement errors. This webinar aims to educate participants on the critical aspects of torque control and the proper selection and use of the best torque wrenches to ensure accurate and reliable fastener tightening across various applications. We will explain the purpose of controlled torque in fastening applications and how torque values are determined, emphasizing the critical role of proper torque application in preventing failures across various industries. We will also discuss different types of torque wrenches, including click-type, ratcheting, pneumatic, and electric wrenches. Lastly, we will address frequently asked questions about torque wrench selection, usage, and maintenance to help you choose the best torque wrench for your application.
Torque Webinar Part 1: Standards and Torque Measurement Errors
Join us October 15th at 11 am for the 60-minute webinar, "Torque Webinar Part 1: Standards and Errors". This will be the first of two torque webinars. For this first part, we will provide an overview of torque calibration, focusing on standards, torque measurement errors, and metrological traceability. It will define torque and its derivation from SI units, then explore various torque standards, including lever deadweight systems and electronic transfer references. The webinar will emphasize potential measurement errors in torque calibration, such as misalignment, worn drives, and bending effects. It also will address metrological traceability, discussing the importance of documented procedures, measurement assurance, and technical competence.
Maintaining precise cable tension is crucial across various industries, including engineering, construction, aerospace, and manufacturing. Cable tensiometers serve as indispensable instruments for measuring and monitoring this cable tension. However, the calibration of cable tensiometers is riddled with problems. Addressing those problems is the focus of a free webinar, Cable Tensiometers: Let's Keep the Proper Stress on the Cables, Not Your Nerves, presented by Henry Zumbrun, President of Morehouse Instrument Company.
The webinar is set for 11 a.m. (EDT) on September 10th. It will cover the essential aspects of successful cable tensiometer calibration: selecting the right equipment, implementing the optimal process, and understanding the end-user's requirements.
Attendees will learn how to:
* Identify three key factors that can significantly impact the accuracy of cable tensiometer calibration.
* Compare and contrast different methods used for calibrating cable tensiometers.
* Analyze the impact of cable length and type on calibration results.
* Evaluate the importance of understanding end-user practices for selecting appropriate calibration methods.
* Recognize the potential discrepancies between current calibration practices and real-world cable usage.
Don't let cable tension calibration become your next headache. Join Henry Zumbrun on September 10th to discover practical solutions and ensure your operations run smoothly. Register today – it's free!
Measurements Gone Wrong: The Impact of Metrology Errors
Join us on June 6 at 2 PM for the 90-minute webinar, “Measurements Gone Wrong: Understanding the Impact of Metrology Errors.” This session will delve into the critical consequences of inaccuracies in measurement uncertainty, the fallout from improper calibration, cost-cutting measures, and other pivotal metrology topics. We will explore why understanding metrological concepts is vital, illustrated through real-world examples, and highlight practical cases. This webinar underscores the everyday relevance of understanding the correct requirements and how slight miscalculations can have far-reaching effects, from the materials used in your home to the seemingly insignificant cardboard of a toilet paper roll. This webinar is about learning from past failures so they do not get repeated.
The Force of Decision Rules: Metrology Meets Star Wars
Join us on May 2nd at 2 PM for a unique and engaging 90-minute webinar, "The Force of Decision Rules: Metrology Meets Star Wars." In this fun and informative session, led by Morehouse President Henry A. Zumbrun (also author of the new book "Decision Rule Guidance"), we'll explore the complex world of decision rules in metrology with a creative twist – using the beloved Star Wars saga as our guide. This webinar will demystify decision rules using examples from 'Episode IV: A New Hope,' making the topic accessible and engaging even for those who haven't ventured into the Star Wars universe. Enhance your metrology knowledge and pick up a copy of "Decision Rule Guidance" at https://mhforce.com/new-book-tackles-decision-rules-and-measurement-risk/ – it's a great addition to your shelf! Concluding with a Q&A session, participants can engage with Mr. Zumbrun on metrology topics. Join us– no prior Star Wars experience is required!
Join us on April 11 at 10 AM for a comprehensive 90-minute webinar titled "Optimizing Universal Calibrating Machines." This session will enhance your understanding and skill in using Universal Calibrating Machines. Participants will explore the critical aspects of what makes a force machine effective. We'll explore common challenges in calibrating force-measuring instruments, introduce adapters that help reduce errors, and reveal strategies to achieve the best uncertainty results. The webinar concludes with a Q&A session with experts. Whether you're a seasoned professional or new, this webinar is an essential resource.
